I was at Wembly to witness this tour. It was my first Prince live show....

Its terrible I know but I cant really remember too much about it, I was 15 at the time...my Dad gave me a lift on my own (3 hour drive) and he waited in the car outside in the carpark until it had finished!!

I just wish I had taken more of it onboard at the time, I think when you are that young its hard to retain memories of such an event if yuor life!!

I just remeber being blown away.....not actual moments apart from him seeming to look staight at me (I know it wasnt but it seemed it at the time) and his look was encouraging me to dance!!!

Wish I could go back and live that night again.

Side note - I was really not fond of the beard he had going on at this time. Not the best look for him. The long hair - yes. The beard - no. His face was too "pretty" to pull off the beard.

Nude tour Manchester Maine Road

Now that night brings back memories! I couldn't find the fucking place. Ended up missing the concert and picking up a couple of hitchhikers in the hope they'd end my misery (okay I was young and dumb). They were so nice, they even offered to go out their way to take me there. I was so late I said no and went home instead

What a bummer!!! That is a shame.

On another note....now I understand the purpose for all of the scaffolding - was wondering about it while watching that short clip of the stage prep from Steve Purcell - now I see it was just to display a ginormous picture of his early symbol and a blow up of his eye

I'm going to speak for Prince and say that we are very glad U did not get chopped into tiny pieces by hitchhickers!

That's funny. I struggled to find it too. It was my first trip to Maine Road, and when you don't know Manchester and don't have sat Nav, you don't expect a ground to be tucked away in all that housing.

I made it on time, but only just, and I'd left about 2 hour spare to hang around.

I think there's a mouse on the stage

Perhaps someone lost a contact?

"Tony, look! It's left foot when U jump up on the 1 now we're having fun.

Ok, cool."

Thanks! And so am I! Think of all the music I'd have missed out on...

Yep. Sat nav is a great invention - I only had an AA general map of Great Britain - no wonder I couldn't find it really . Still, I have my unused ticket stub to remind me of what could have been that night.
